January 03, 2022 Ask A Gettysburg Guide #50- SICKLES!-with Jim Hessler
For months, now, listeners have asked us to do another biographical Ask A Gettysburg Guide. We've finally done another. This time, it's about the controversial-in-life-and-death Danial Edgar Sickles. And who better to lead us through this man's colorful life? Well, none other than the Gettysburg's Licensed Battlefield Guide Force's very own, Jim Hessler, of course.

We hope you enjoy this debut episode of season 5.

December 27, 2021 Tim Smith Winter Lecture Series- The Early Commercialization of Gettysburg
This lecture is brought to you because of our Patrons. Thank them by joining them. Who knows? You might learn some more AND make a friend or two. Join the fun today! Click here

We know we said that we would have this week's lecture on video. But the day of, Tim had asked that we don't due to ownership and copyright concerns with the photos used (Tim explains this in the beginning). Therefore, next week begins the video versions of these lectures.

In this one, Tim talks about early commercial ventures starting right after the battle. While the Civil War ruined Gettysburg's economy, it gave Gettysburg a "new birth" of an economy: tourism. Ever since, there's been a constant struggle between preservation and commercialization. The fights of today are nothing new in the history of Gettysburg and they will probably never end.

December 13, 2021 Private Confederacies with Author James Broomall
This episode is brought to your for free because of our Patrons. Become a Patron and help us bring the story of Gettysburg and the men and women who helped shape its story to the masses. Click here! Or support the show in another way. Click here! I feel like a broken record, but what a great time I had interviewing Jim Broomall about his book "Private Confederacies". We met near the monument of the 111th Pa on Culp's Hill, in the shade, with a nice, gentle Pennsylvania breeze which seems to be a rarity for these in-the-field recordings in 2020. Anyway... How did the Civil War, emancipation, and Reconstruction shape the masculinity of white Confederate veterans? As James J. Broomall shows, the crisis of the war forced a reconfiguration of the emotional worlds of the men who took up arms for the South. Raised in an antebellum culture that demanded restraint and shaped white men to embrace self-reliant masculinity, Confederate soldiers lived and fought within military units where they experienced the traumatic strain of combat and its privations together--all the while being separated from suffering families. Military service provoked changes that escalated with the end of slavery and the Confederacy's military defeat. Returning to civilian life, Southern veterans questioned themselves as never before, sometimes suffering from terrible self-doubt. Drawing on personal letters and diaries, Broomall argues that the crisis of defeat ultimately necessitated new forms of expression between veterans and among men and women. On the one hand, war led men to express levels of emotionality and vulnerability previously assumed the domain of women. On the other hand, these men also embraced a virulent, martial masculinity that they wielded during Reconstruction and beyond to suppress freed peoples and restore white rule through paramilitary organizations and the Ku Klux Klan. James J. Broomall is assistant professor of history at Shepherd University and director of the George Tyler Moore Center for the Study of the Civil War. Get Private Confederacies from UNC Press here

December 07, 2021 Tim Smith's Winter Lecture Series #1- "The Roads of Gettysburg"
It's Winter (almost) and that means Winter lectures! Hooray!

This season, we hope to be able to bring you Tim Smith's lectures from the Farnsworth House as well as the Winter Lecture Series from GNMP.

This episode is the first of Tim's and it is about the Roads of Gettysburg. How many roads funneled into Gettysburg in 1863? 7? 8? 10? 11? 12? Depends on who you ask, apparently.

Tim's lecture is a fascinating look back at how the roads of the area formed into what they were in 1863 and what they are now.

You asked for it and we delivered. In this episode, LBGs Garry Adelman and Tim Smith (or is it Tim Smith and Garry Adelman?) join us to talk about the history of Gettysburg National Military Park. This episode tickles the chin of 3 hours long, but we think you'll like it anyway.

- John Bachelder's influence on the park and the narrative of the Battle of Gettysburg

- Garry shares celery with Matt while Eric squirms at the chewing sound

- Two Patrons ask essentially the same question with causes the sparks to fly

- Garry throws celery at Matt

- Matt picks it up off the floor and eats it
